Post flatbed load photos here V2.0

I saw a container just like that headed south on i29 yesterday morning in SD . was a different company tho. Never knew they made containers that big !

 

was it one of these? They are brand new and painted white. The ones we hauled did not go on 29 but did go through South Dakota. These are 4” taller, 8’ longer, and the entire side opens up to load and unload the piece inside.

 

Here's some from recently. I hauled metal again, but used chains this time. Way easier than messing with edge protection. Used straps on the back one, because the edges were rolled nice and smooth.

I've hauled five days a week the last two weeks. I'm officially making money, and I enjoy it!!

Edit: I'm at Love's in the first pic. I only meant to pump enough fuel to get home, because it's 40 cents cheaper near my house. Pumped 68 gallons in the time it took to take two pictures. Some seriously fast pumps there.

 

Good stuff man!

 

I may not have the terminology correct. All I know is it’s pre ELD and runs. He was a CAT mechanic for a long time and does all his own work

 

Yep thats exactly what it was. what are they used for ? Equipment?

 

Commercial aircraft parts. The company that builds the planes owns all their specialized containers. These are the “small” ones, the larger ones go by ship, barrage, and short line rail right into the plant.

 

Got a long weekend thanks to the holiday Monday. Got a delivery on Wednesday and Thursday and then nothing. 5800/miles in December with 1500 of those being bobtail and half of the remaining being empty... or just about. I’m working too hard...

 

Not dead yet. Yeah, ive been quiet, but ive been really preoccupied getting things taken care of the last few months. For one, Starting my LLC, getting the accounts open, we are almost ready to go forward, right now everything is in place, got the ops budget etc. Me and my Buissness partner are both going truck shopping atm. After alot of calls and walking alot of lots, I finally found something, and im trying to close the deal atm, its there, its good, it meets my specs. So im hoping in the next week or two itll be mine, and ill be on the way to my next carrier. Whole family got Covid, everyone is ok.

But yeah, ive been busy af the last few weeks. Upgraded my last student today actually. And yeah Ive given notice. So once all that happens, ill have much more exciting things to show. Till then heres some random loads from the last few weeks.

 

Since I lost my water work I let my driver take a load from ND to KS....

....well those idiots put the wrong piece on her

Can you see what’s wrong ?
